Part 1 B-
Color:
This picture shows that the little boy is young and he is walking down the street. Also, it looks like there is a restraunt or shop to the side of him. I can also tell that children back in the day wore different clothes from what we wear today. He is wearing overalls and a hat, and most kids now wouldn't dress like that.
Black & White:
This is a good picture to show how the Great Depression was. Many African Americans struggled with providing food to their families. They also struggled because of the amount of work they had to do. In this picture they are in Decatur, Alabama. Ingalls Shipping Company and the workers are called welders who are constructing a barge. This picture was taken in July 1942 by Delano, Jack.

Observe: In this picture, there is a dog shown in the left hand corner. There also is 4 people dressed in tuxedos and hats looking at the ground. They are arranged by one person all the way to the left and the other three to the right of the wall. The setting looks like there is a sale going on in the store. Also, I think it might be a tuxedo store. I notice that there is a old fashion car to the right of the picture. We obviously don't have many of those in life today. Also, it looks like there are no doors in the store, just looks like anyone can go in at anytime. There are pictures and signs on the walls which look odd. Analyze: In this image, I think there is a sale going on for tuxedos and hats because as you can see there are price tags on the jackets. I don't know why this picture was made, possibly because it is busy and the store is popular. It looks like people from the right of the picture are going in the store and looking at the people sitting on the chairs. I can learn that they have those people on display to see how good they look on themselves. Also, I think the store is on a main street because you can see the parking lines and the sidewalk. I think if we made this today, the picture would be in color. I think we would have better quality suits. Also, there probably wouldn't be a stray dog wandering around on the sidewalk. Today, we would we a dog on a leash being walked by its owner. Also, we most likely wouldn't see a car like that now a days. Finally, the store and the windows/doors would be in better condition and look more appealing to customers. Question:I think they might of taken this picture because maybe it was someones famous store. I don't know when this picture was taken but it probably was a while ago because the picture is in black and white. Now a days it would most likely be in color. It was probably taken with a camera that could only take neutral colors, like black and white.

Observe: In this image, I see a couple possibly working on a huge farm. I notice that the picture is in black and white and that the plants look like they are in good shape. I think they are either harvesting the plants or pulling weeds. The physical setting looks dull because the skies look cloudy and there are not a lot of houses like we would see today or cars/roads. In this picture it is more like farm land and a couple of trees. Analyze:I think this image was made to show people now or later on in life how it was back then. I think it is very different from what we have today. There is a women and a male using a certain tool to pull the weeds or the plant out. I think there are a lot of things missing from this images. For example, today we would see buildings, roads, people, grass, a lot more trees, and cars. I think the only thing that would be the same in this image is that people now a days still have farms but not as large. I think it looks really time consuming to harvest all of those plants. Question: I think someone would take this picture because they can reflect on it now and say what it was like back then. This picture looks old because it is in black and white and also, the two farmers look like they don't have good quality farming clothes. It looks like they just wrapped cloth around themselves and found a hat.

Observe: In this image I see four people. Probably young children standing on a shack or a farm house. I notice that there is a bucket and the children's feet are all white because of the dirt and mess they have to deal with. I notice that there clothes don't look too clean from what we would wear today. They have clothes in them and stains. It doesn't look like they have good shoes that will support there feet. The physical setting in this picture is old. The house looks like it was built by wooden planks and just thrown together. Analyze: I think this image was made to see what life would be like now. Life today, we would rarely see this type of house or shack. Houses today have foundation and they are clean. The audience in this image was probably the children that live in the small house. It must be difficult moving around and trying to get clean with four or more people in such a small house. However, at least people have a roof over there head because it could be worse. I don't think anything in this picture would be the same today. Today, we would see clean kids and clothes that are in good shape. Also, houses today do not have wooden planks like that. Question: I think someone who took this picture, took it because it shows how life was for the children and how they have to live with having clothes and stains and probably wearing the same clothes everyday. I wonder what it would be like not to shower everyday or put on new clothes. Or even wear socks, it looks like they have poor shoes and there feet do not look to good. This picture was probably taken around the afternoon, it looks like it would be a farm house because they have a bucket. However, I think life back then was really tough.
